hi,all
I am reading code about pci, and I can't understand some lines in
pci_check_direct(), in arch/i386/kernel/pci-pc.c
the PCI spec v2.0 say: ( page32)
"Anytime a host bridge sees a full DWORD I/O write from the host to
CONFIG_ADDRESS, the bridge must latch the data into its CONFIG_ADDRESS
register. On full DWORD I/O reads to CONFIG_ADDRESS,the bridge must return
the
data in CONFIG_ADDRESS. Any other types of accesses to this
address(non-DWORD)
have no effect on CONFIG_ADDRESS and are excuted as normal I/O transaction
on PCI bus......"
CONFIG_ADDRESS = 0xcf8
CONFIG_data = 0xcfc
so , I wonder why need "outb (0x01, 0xCFB);" if check configuration type 1 ?
and why "outb (0x00, 0xCFB);" if check configuration type 2?
please help me, thanks a lot.
406 static struct pci_ops * __devinit pci_check_direct(void)
407 {
408 unsigned int tmp;
409 unsigned long flags;
410
411 __save_flags(flags); __cli();
412
413 /*
414 * Check if configuration type 1 works.
415 */
416 if (pci_probe & PCI_PROBE_CONF1) {
417 outb (0x01, 0xCFB); <<<=========
418 tmp = inl (0xCF8);
419 outl (0x80000000, 0xCF8);
420 if (inl (0xCF8) == 0x80000000 &&
421 pci_sanity_check(&pci_direct_conf1)) {
422 outl (tmp, 0xCF8);
